A NAG AND DAD OF GIVING OUT CRAZY PUNISHMENTS -- ON ABC'S "THE MIDDLE"

"The Sit Down" - Axl, Sue and Brick call a sit down meeting with a shocked Frankie and Mike, accusing mom of being a nag and dad of giving out crazy punishments without ever hearing their sides of the story. In return, all they ask is for a chance to do what they're supposed to do - on their own - without constantly being harassed by their parents. But the kids learn to be careful what you wish for when Frankie and Mike agree to their terms and find themselves taking a relaxing break from responsibility, on "The Middle," WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 22 (8:00-8:30 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. (Rebroadcast. OAD: 2/22/12)
